[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 2347506, member: 101791"] You don't want to use cotton at any layer. Once wet or damp. The pull heat from you. There should be info out there on cool weather dressing gear. Down liner don't work either. If wet it takes away body heat. Now if you are backpacking a down sleeping bag is warmer for the weight. It has to be protected against getting wet. A thermal blanket should be carried with you and use if you get into trouble. They generally have an orange side to them. They are very small and light. Wool is good and retains about 80% of heat value, but heavy. Gortex and Tin-lite are vey much lighter and rain proof with heat retention. Silk against the body will take the moister away from the body or synthetic, will do the same. Layer is the name of the game. [/QUOTE]
